It's Election Day!

As I was 90% done with packing the boys lunches this morning, I realized "Today is voting day!!" How could I forget? I tried to think of something "voting" or "election" themed to include in their lunch today, but didn't have anything. I'll be sure to be ready in the next 4 years! So check back then! =)

Today's lunch was a breakfast burrito (whole wheat tortilla, egg, fat free refried beans & cheese), strawberries & grapes. The little blue & yellow package on the side is a Filipino dessert which my dad brought back from his trip to the Philippines. It's called Polvoron.
 
I don't consider myself a political person at all, but today I did vote. I hope that all of you went out to the polls today as well so that your voice could be heard too!

Dinosaurs! RAWR!

Hello Everyone! I don't know about you but the Daylight Savings time change has got me off beat today.  We were 30 minutes EARLY to school...on a MONDAY of all things. That never-ever-EVER happens.  I could have probably spent that extra time on the boys lunch today because this is all that I could come up with. Bleh. But needless to say, my boys were happy with mommy's lunch, so that is all that matters.

Strawberry Applesauce (which I was leery of at first but when I checked the ingredients, I was relieved: Strawberry, Apple.) And because we STILL have a TON of Halloween candy left, I included a Kit-Kat. The candy will somehow mysteriously disappear tomorrow when I take it to the office.  "Mom where's the candy?" "Candy? What candy?"
